Our story began in 2014 as college kids studying abroad in Barcelona. Two 20 year olds traveling from Indiana University and University of Maryland - Our groups of friends quickly became inseparable. Late nights partying at our favorite clubs and long weekends traveling around Europe were the norm. Fast forward a few years, after we graduated college we stayed in touch, visiting each other with our friends for weekends in Chicago and New York. During one of these trips something clicked, and it was clear that we no longer were just friends.  A few months later Brad came to Chicago, and our friends immediately knew there was a spark. An innocent weekend visit turned into a multi-day hiatus -  and after a few changed flights, some scary movies, sunset swims and a rooftop picnic, Brad was back in NYC (with Marisa realizing - Oh Shit, this makes me sad...What now?). That next day, Brad called Marisa as she was walking into a boxing class. "Are you sitting down?" "Why what's up?" - Brad's boss offered him a new position in Chicago, and we never looked back.  We jumped right into things and our love grew fast and easy. The next few years were filled with exploring Chicago's amazing restaurant scene, making a home in the Gold Coast, spending time with our families and friends, growing our family with our puppy Alba, traveling around the US and Europe and becoming wine snobs. Now 5 years later, we are planning our wedding to share and celebrate with all of you! Our wedding brings you to Charleston - our current adventure and homebase. We are so excited to share this awesome town with our family and friends and have some fun with this Lowcountry Livin'.
